why did people in houston think that this wasn't going to happen

this is the logical conclusion of the prediction of 60 inches over 3 days or whatever

sounds like it was a combination of things:

* tropical storm allison was in 2001 so not sure if there's strong recent memory of insane flooding in houston
* the hurricane rita evacuation was a shitshow so there was probably reticence on the part of civic officials to evac if danger didn't materialize
* the forecast models predicting biblical floods was really unusual, so it was hard to communicate the danger effectively, esp. with the level of doubt that any forecast still has
* the public tends to focus on saffir-simpson scale with tropical systems, so when harvey starts downgrading with land interaction the perception is that the situation is safer

before hurricane, kids worried and crying: pray 4 god to protect you and steer hurricane away
during hurricane, dog washed away, house destroyed: pray 4 god to protect you from the rising water
after hurricane, no place to live, place of work ad school destroyed: pray 2 god thanking him for his mercy


trump, during all this: trying to see how many sharpie markers he can hold under his big fat old man orangutan tits

previous family: trump did a fabulous job and god guided his hands. i want 4 more years of him

The preparation of this is a damned disaster, federal government should have done a shitload more, governor just said "Everyone should evacuate" without putting anything in place to do so.

So, let's see, who should we blame, who should we blame?

Wait, the mayor in Houston is a black democrat? *types up talking points for the right wing radio circuit*
